Pope Francis’ gestures to open dialogue on homosexuality, divorced Catholics, undocumented workers, and the big bang theory of creation augur well for the global Catholic community and the family of man. But what about the family of women? Jesus had his circle of women disciples; Saint Francis had an intellectual companion in Saint Clare. Who are the women who could help Pope Francis?
Nancy Scheper-Hughes is a professor of Anthropology and the chair of the Doctoral Program in Medical Anthropology at UC Berkeley as well as the author of many books.
Jennifer Scheper Hughes is an associate professor of History at UC Riverside who specializes in Mexican and Mexican-American religion and in the history of Liberation Theology.
The talk will take place in Room 370, Dwinelle Hall, UC Berkeley.
